Freaked out


Question Posted Saturday December 6 2003, 9:53 am

Okay, I have been having unprotected sex with my boyfriend and it is a day or so past the time I should have started my period, now if I am pregnant my parents will freak and kick me out of the house in shame. What should I do? I need to find out if I am pregnant without them knowing and if I do end up pregnant then I need to get rid of it without them knowing.. What should I do?

Firstly, Shame INDEED to you for having unprotected sex! Don't you know, that's how humans are made! Naughty!
I don't know how old you are but I sure hope it's over 15. Good gods.
Firstly, check yourself for typical patterns of normal health caused by hormones. I tend to break out 2 weeks after and a few days just before my period. I get PMS the week before and have terrible mood swings. Also I cramp during ovulation, but I'm told this is pretty rare. Try to think of your body's natural rhythms and remember if you've seen any.
Over-the-counter pregnancy tests are available everywhere (Wal-Mart, CVS Pharmacy... etc) for about $7-15. If you can't stand to get one, get your boyfriend to go get it, because if the worst should be true then this is at least half his fault.
Once more, what were you thinking, not using a condom? Don't EVER let someone talk you into unprotected sex. Bad. Bad. Bad.

The only way to be sure you ARE pregnant is if you completely skip two periods, but that's a rather long time to wait. I'd like to point out that morning sickness won't even show up until 3 or 4 months into the pregnancy. You can probably look in the phone book under women's health or abortion clinics. There are several sites online that will give assistance to people with unwanted pregnancies so dig around online.
Abortions take a couple days to get over (pain and all that) so you're going to be puttering around for a weekend if you have to get it done. I would wait a week and see if your period does show up on its own. Depending on how stressed you are or how regular your period is, it could just be lazy. Cinnamon is known to stir the blood and coax out a reluctant period. If you feel like it, carry around a garnet or moonstone; both stones are sympathetic with women's energies and garnet cares for the bloodstream.

Most of all don't freak out until a week after your period should be there. Get a test kit, and do what you have to.
